mm/gup.c: document return value

2018-04-14T00:10:27Z

__get_user_pages_fast handles errors differently from get_user_pages_fast: the former always returns the number of pages pinned, the later might return a negative error code.

mm: fix races between swapoff and flush dcache

2018-04-06T04:36:26Z

Thanks to commit 4b3ef9daa4fc ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB trunks"), after swapoff the address_space associated with the swap device will be freed. So page_mapping() users which may touch the address_space need some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space from being freed during accessing. The dcache flushing functions (flush_dcache_page(), etc) in architecture specific code may access the address_space of swap device for anonymous pages in swap cache via page_mapping() function. But in some cases there are no mechanisms to prevent the swap device from being swapoff, for example, CPU1 CPU2 __get_user_pages() swapoff() flush_dcache_page() mapping = page_mapping() ... exit_swap_address_space() ... kvfree(spaces) mapping_mapped(mapping) The address space may be accessed after being freed. But from cachetlb.txt and Russell King, flush_dcache_page() only care about file cache pages, for anonymous pages, flush_anon_page() should be used. The implementation of flush_dcache_page() in all architectures follows this too. They will check whether page_mapping() is NULL and whether mapping_mapped() is true to determine whether to flush the dcache immediately. And they will use interval tree (mapping->i_mmap) to find all user space mappings. While mapping_mapped() and mapping->i_mmap isn't used by anonymous pages in swap cache at all. So, to fix the race between swapoff and flush dcache, __page_mapping() is add to return the address_space for file cache pages and NULL otherwise. All page_mapping() invoking in flush dcache functions are replaced with page_mapping_file().

sparc64: Add support for ADI (Application Data Integrity)

2018-03-18T14:38:48Z

ADI is a new feature supported on SPARC M7 and newer processors to allow hardware to catch rogue accesses to memory. ADI is supported for data fetches only and not instruction fetches. An app can enable ADI on its data pages, set version tags on them and use versioned addresses to access the data pages. Upper bits of the address contain the version tag. On M7 processors, upper four bits (bits 63-60) contain the version tag. If a rogue app attempts to access ADI enabled data pages, its access is blocked and processor generates an exception. Please see Documentation/sparc/adi.txt for further details. This patch extends mprotect to enable ADI (TSTATE.mcde), enable/disable MCD (Memory Corruption Detection) on selected memory ranges, enable TTE.mcd in PTEs, return ADI parameters to userspace and save/restore ADI version tags on page swap out/in or migration. ADI is not enabled by default for any task. A task must explicitly enable ADI on a memory range and set version tag for ADI to be effective for the task.

sparc64: Fix regression in pmdp_invalidate().

2018-03-15T21:18:00Z

pmdp_invalidate() was changed to update the pmd atomically (to not lose dirty/access bits) and return the original pmd value. However, in doing so, we lost a lot of the essential work that set_pmd_at() does, namely to update hugepage mapping counts and queuing up the batched TLB flush entry. Thus we were not flushing entries out of the TLB when making such PMD changes. Fix this by abstracting the accounting work of set_pmd_at() out into a separate function, and call it from pmdp_establish().

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

2018-02-06T18:41:33Z

Pull libnvdimm updates from Ross Zwisler: - Require struct page by default for filesystem DAX to remove a number of surprising failure cases. This includes failures with direct I/O, gdb and fork(2). - Add support for the new Platform Capabilities Structure added to the NFIT in ACPI 6.2a. This new table tells us whether the platform supports flushing of CPU and memory controller caches on unexpected power loss events. - Revamp vmem_altmap and dev_pagemap handling to clean up code and better support future future PCI P2P uses. - Deprecate the ND_IOCTL_SMART_THRESHOLD command whose payload has become out-of-sync with recent versions of the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL spec, and instead rely on the generic ND_CMD_CALL approach used by the two other IOCTL families, NVDIMM_FAMILY_{HPE,MSFT}. - Enhance nfit_test so we can test some of the new things added in version 1.6 of the DSM specification. This includes testing firmware download and simulating the Last Shutdown State (LSS) status. * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (37 commits) libnvdimm, namespace: remove redundant initialization of 'nd_mapping' acpi, nfit: fix register dimm error handling libnvdimm, namespace: make min namespace size 4K tools/testing/nvdimm: force nfit_test to depend on instrumented modules libnvdimm/nfit_test: adding support for unit testing enable LSS status libnvdimm/nfit_test: add firmware download emulation nfit-test: Add platform cap support from ACPI 6.2a to test libnvdimm: expose platform persistence attribute for nd_region acpi: nfit: add persistent memory control flag for nd_region acpi: nfit: Add support for detect platform CPU cache flush on power loss device-dax: Fix trailing semicolon libnvdimm, btt: fix uninitialized err_lock dax: require 'struct page' by default for filesystem dax ext2: auto disable dax instead of failing mount ext4: auto disable dax instead of failing mount mm, dax: introduce pfn_t_special() mm: Fix devm_memremap_pages() collision handling mm: Fix memory size alignment in devm_memremap_pages_release() memremap: merge find_dev_pagemap into get_dev_pagemap memremap: change devm_memremap_pages interface to use struct dev_pagemap ...

Revert "mm: replace p??_write with pte_access_permitted in fault + gup paths"

2017-12-16T02:53:22Z

This reverts commits 5c9d2d5c269c, c7da82b894e9, and e7fe7b5cae90. We'll probably need to revisit this, but basically we should not complicate the get_user_pages_fast() case, and checking the actual page table protection key bits will require more care anyway, since the protection keys depend on the exact state of the VM in question. Particularly when doing a "remote" page lookup (ie in somebody elses VM, not your own), you need to be much more careful than this was. Dave Hansen says: "So, the underlying bug here is that we now a get_user_pages_remote() and then go ahead and do the p*_access_permitted() checks against the current PKRU. This was introduced recently with the addition of the new p??_access_permitted() calls. We have checks in the VMA path for the "remote" gups and we avoid consulting PKRU for them. This got missed in the pkeys selftests because I did a ptrace read, but not a *write*. I also didn't explicitly test it against something where a COW needed to be done" It's also not entirely clear that it makes sense to check the protection key bits at this level at all. But one possible eventual solution is to make the get_user_pages_fast() case just abort if it sees protection key bits set, which makes us fall back to the regular get_user_pages() case, which then has a vma and can do the check there if we want to. We'll see. Somewhat related to this all: what we _do_ want to do some day is to check the PAGE_USER bit - it should obviously always be set for user pages, but it would be a good check to have back. Because we have no generic way to test for it, we lost it as part of moving over from the architecture-specific x86 GUP implementation to the generic one in commit e585513b76f7 ("x86/mm/gup: Switch GUP to the generic get_user_page_fast() implementation").
